How to get from Heathrow airport to London city

Are you going to the Olympics in London? are you traveling by plane?

If you are one of those lucky ones that will travel to London by plane to see some of the events of the Olympics 2012, have you thought about how to get from the airport to the center of the city?

Travelling to Heathrow airport

Which ever airport you depart from, the most comfortable way to go to the airport is driving to there with your own car. If Aena parking is to expensive for you, you can hire a car parking at Madrid airport, Barcelona airport,...it will be more cheaper and your vehicle, in some cases, will be parked even in better conditions.

Ones resolved the issue of how to get to the airport, the only thing that rests is taking your plane that brings you to Heathrow Airport.

Heathrow, one of the busiest air traffic airports in the world
Heathrow airport is one of the airports with most air traffic. On of the most important airports with great capacity with an estimation of 90 million people a year that passes through its facilities.

With such dimensions that we are talking about, it is not surprising that we concern about how to go from the airport to London city.
Getting from Heathrow to London
It is normal to find several different kind of public and private means of transport at an airport of these features, to get us from the airport to the center of the city.

Heathrow connect, is a train service that connects the airport with Paddington, it takes about 30 minutes approximately to get there, but it has train stands at all important stations during the trip, which can be an inconvenient if you are in a hurry. Its cost is not very economical, approximately 16.5 pounds.
The subway is the most economical means of transport that there is that can bring you to the center of London, but it is not the fastest one. It takes about 45 minutes to get there and it costs about 5 pounds. There is no service during the early morning hours.
Another option is taking the bus, it tends to be more expensive than the subway and it takes longer as well, due to this, the majority of tourists discards to use it.
Taking a taxi is one of the most comfortable options, but it also consumes your time, approximately one hour. Besides it´s one of the most expensive ones, only a one way rit can cost us easily between 50 to 60 pounds.

Hiring a car at Heathrow airport, hiring a car rental service at the airports of London. Like the rest of European airports, booking a rental car is the most convenient and comfortable option and might be also the most economic one. You can hire it directly at the same airport, for example at El Altet airport there are several car rental counters where you can hire a rental car at Alicante airport, same way as in Madrid, Barcelona and many other international airports. Alternatively you can book in advance from any existing online booking system.
Besides of going from Heathrow to London, with a rental car we also can visit other interesting destinations near London.
